Jeremy Couillard Builds Narrative Universe around His Newest Videogame

Foregrounding the American artist’s videogame-based practice, “List Projects 30: Jeremy Couillard” opens at MIT’s List Visual Arts Center in Cambridge (US). His first institutional solo show, Couillard presents a new game, Escape from Lavender Island (2023), alongside accompanying media and artifacts. Set in a dystopian city controlled by an unscrupulous corporation, the game models an absurd alternative world to “help us see the contingency and hallucinatory quality of our own social arrangements.”
